[0029] The present invention will now be further described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0030] The present invention provides a medical breathing probe, which adopts a variable gap diaphragm 1 and a smooth airway detection scheme, and specifically designs a group of diaphragm valve cores with variable gaps through swan neck bending. The diaphragm 1 is designed to bend the swan neck to increase the measurement accuracy. The structure diagram of the variable path medical breathing probe is shown in FIG. Figure 1-9 As shown, the medical breathing probe is composed of a plurality of metal valve blocks and silicone seals. The function of the metal valve block is to fix the airway and the diaphragm valve core together. The medical breathing probe includes a diaphragm 1, a diaphragm valve core, a first smooth airway guide block 8, a second smooth airway guide block 9, a valve body 6 and a sampling device 10. The first smooth airway guide block 8 and the second smooth airway guide block 9 are arranged on both sides of the valve body 6. The first smooth airway guide block 8 and the second smooth airway guide block 9 are both U-shaped curved surface structures. Among them, the end of the valve body 6 away from the valve seat can be an arched structure.

[0031] The diaphragm 1 is installed on the valve seat of the valve body 6 through the diaphragm valve core. The diaphragm includes a swinging part 2, a connecting part 3 and a fixed part 4. The swinging part 2 is connected to one end of the connecting part 3, and the other end of the connecting part 3 is connected to the fixed part 4. The structure of the connecting part 3 is a slender structure. The end of the swinging part 2 away from the connecting part is an arc structure. The valve body 6 extends an arched part 7 vertically to the end of the swinging part 2 away from the connecting part away from the valve seat. The arched end of the arched part 7 matches the arc of the end of the swinging part 2 away from the connecting part. The swinging part 2 is close to the connecting part and a concave cutout 5 is set along both sides of the connecting part. The fixed part 4 of the diaphragm 1 is fixed to the valve seat of the valve body by a valve core and a pressure block through a first screw 17 and a second screw 18. The diaphragm can be easily replaced, the diaphragm is firmly fixed, and the life of the diaphragm is increased. The diaphragm 1 adopts a thin neck bending design of corrosion-resistant materials, which is more sensitive to flow changes, thereby increasing the detection accuracy. The diaphragm 1 has a detection gap with the arched part. And the diaphragm 1 is assembled and fixed by two clamping plates to facilitate the consistency of probe assembly.

[0032] The connecting portion 3 of the diaphragm 1 is a thin neck structure, and the diaphragm is bent under force to cause the diameter to change. When the flow rate is small, the diaphragm initially produces a slight bend, the diameter is small, and the detection accuracy is high. In the process of increasing flow and pressure, the diaphragm continues to bend, which plays a role in increasing the diameter and can be compatible with a larger measurement range. At the same time, due to the bending of the diaphragm, the diameter becomes larger and the local resistance is greatly reduced, which plays a key role in improving the measurement accuracy and range.

[0033] The sampling device 10 is higher than the main air path plane and is arranged above the first smooth airway guide block 8 and the second smooth airway guide block 9, wherein the sampling device 10 includes a first sampling channel 11 and a second sampling channel 14; the first sampling channel 11 includes a first air path 12 and a second air path 13, one end of the first air path 12 and one end of the second air path 13 are vertically connected, the first air path 12 is arranged above the first smooth airway guide block 8, and the second air path 13 is arranged in the same direction as the main air path; the second sampling channel 14 includes a third air path 15 and a fourth air path 16, the third air path 15 and the fourth air path 16 are connected, the third air path 15 is arranged above the second smooth airway guide block 9, and the fourth air path 16 is arranged in the same direction as the main air path.

[0034] A silicone seal assembly 21 is provided at the connection between the third gas path 15 and the fourth gas path 16. The silicone seal assembly 21 has a turning mechanism inside for gas path turning and is parallel to the main gas path 19. The other end of the second gas path 13 is sealed with a double lip of the silicone seal assembly, and the fourth gas path 16 away from the third gas path 15 is sealed with a double lip of the silicone seal assembly.

[0035] The silicone seal of the present invention has the following functions: first, to reduce the leakage of the detection gas; second, to change the direction of the sampling airway from perpendicular to the main airway to parallel to the main airway 19; and third, to design a double-lip seal and blindly insert the detection pipeline, with good sealing effect.

[0036] The medical respiratory probe also includes a protective net 20, which is arranged in the main air inlet and outlet valve block, connected by threads, and a closed space is formed in the middle by a silicone gasket and a groove. The main airway is designed with a protective net 20 to prevent foreign objects from damaging the diaphragm. When the gas flows in from the air inlet, it passes through the smooth metal air guide, the diaphragm valve core and the diaphragm 1 to the air outlet. Since there are airway guide blocks on both sides, the local resistance can be reduced, and the resistance is further reduced due to the variable gap of the diaphragm. When a small flow enters the probe, the diameter is small and the measurement accuracy is high; when a large flow passes through the probe, the diaphragm bends moderately, the diameter becomes larger, and a larger range can be measured. When the pressure difference is detected by the inlet and outlet detection interface, the flow change can be sensitively detected according to the pressure value and the pressure difference, while reducing the effect of respiratory resistance. This structure changes the direction of the bilateral gas paths to be detected. The sampling device 10 is higher than the main airway by a certain height, which changes the setting position of the sampling point, reduces the influence of turbulence in the sampling area, and improves the sampling and detection accuracy. The silicone seal detection port and the tube adopt double-lip sealing, which can realize blind insertion installation of the equipment and greatly improve the assembly efficiency.

[0037] The medical breathing probe includes a ventilation valve body 22 and a ventilation valve body 23, and the ventilation valve body 22 and the ventilation valve body 23 are connected. The ventilation valve body 22 and the ventilation valve body 23 are both hollow structures. The hollow structure of the ventilation valve body 22 is the main airway 19, and the ventilation valve body 23 is used to set the valve body 6, the first smooth airway guide block 8, the second smooth airway guide block 9, the sampling device 10, the silicone sealing component 21 and other related accessories. In addition, the ventilation valve body 2 is provided with a detection hole 24, and the detection hole includes a first detection hole 25 and a second detection hole 26. The first detection hole 25 is the outlet end of the second air path 13, and the second detection hole 26 is the outlet end of the fourth air path 16.
